WOULD MARRY NO ONE NOT I'm
TIRELY SOBER.-A yOung couple
called upon the Rev. Sylvanus
Stall. of Lancaster, Pa, last Sat
urday. to be married. While the
ceremony was in progress and the
man had said the important "Hes"
the minister detected the odor OF
linuor. He Immediately stopped
and told the expectant groom he
would have to ask him another
question: Had he been drinking
The man at first denied, but finally
confessed that he taken one glass;
The minister declined TO proceed
with the ceremony, stating that he
had formed a resolution never 10
marry a man who was in any way
under the influence of liquor. Ihe
situation was embarrassing to all
parties concerned, but the preacher
persisted, returned the license, ana
heparties went elsewhere in search
of some one to perform the mar
riage ceremony.

Interesting Experiences.

Hiram Cameron, Furniture Deal
er of Columbus, Ga, tells his ex-
perience, thus: "For three years
have tried every remedy on the
market for Stomach and Kidney
Disorders, but got no relief, until
! used Electric Bitters. Took five
bottles and am now cured, and
think Electric Bitters. the Best
Blood Purifier in the wOrld."-
Major A. b. Reed, Of West Liberty,
Kv., used Electric Bitters for an
old standing Kidney affection and
says: "Nothing has ever done me
so much good as Electric Bitters.'

SULLlVAN'S WRIST REALLY BROKEN,
Ir WAS THE BACK or CARDIFFS
NECK THAT SNAPP ED THE
CHAMPIONS BONE.

\ telegram from Minneapolis,
Jan. 10, says: The result of the
fight last night bctv cen John H..
Sullivan and Patsy Cardiff was a
surprise TO every one who saw IT..
II was at first thought TO be a
hippodrome, but no one thinks so
now. The blow which Cardlii
struck Sullivan in the first round
was square in the mouth aud drew
blood. This caused Sullivan to be
somewhat cautions. Within a
moment, however, he aimed one OF
his terrible right-handers at Car
diff. which the latter lodged, and
Sullivan's wrist struck on the back
of Cardln's neck, breaking the
wrist bone. Sullivan concealed
this fact even from his seconds un-
i'll the close Of the fight, and this
accounts for the apparent tameness
of the remainder of the contest
This showed his wisdom, for had
Cardiff known tho champion was
injured he would have been more
aggressive.
Cardiff is the most surprised man
IN Minneapolis over the result, for,
in conversation with an Associated
Press reporter after the fight, he
said he expected to be knocked out
and he acted with great caution
knowing that Sullivan was only
waiting to get one good effective
blow. The fight was to be foI
points, the winner to get % pei
cent of house receipts aud the loser
-. The general impression is thai
/ Cardiff had the best of the fight
from first to last, getting in three
blows on Sullivan's face and push
ing him to the rope twice, cleverly
avoiding Sullivan's attacks anc
coming ont at the end Of the sixth
round as fresh as when he went IN
An examination of Sulliyan's wrisl
was made by Drs. Towers, Qulm6y
and Ames. Quimby is the healtl
officer and Ames the mayor o
Minneapolis. They pronounced thu
radius bone of the left hand broken
and signed certificate to that ef

MOdesfy on Sleeping Cars.

Il have Just come from that pain
ful luxury the sleeping car said a
belle. GLOW incOngruOus and i'm
proper it was, for instance, to dis
cover that the grumbler in an mp.
per berth, whose mlldest remark
in the course of the long night was,
dts cursed hot up here was none
other than a full fedged major
general. By day he was a gor-
geous vision of spectacular gallant
ry, 10y night a bowling demon of
profanity. But enough of men,
the commonplace creatures their
ways are as plain as an opened book,
and their characters as easily read.
Let us return to the ineXhaustible
field for psychoanthropological re-
source. The first night in sleeper
is nothing to the first morning.
"Well do | remember my first
experience. The toilet is accom-
plished under such narrowing cir
cumstances. Said a stout young
woman from an adjoining section {:
q have travelled all the way from
San Francisco In a sleeper, and
I've lost the last shred of mOdesty.
| believed her when | saw her sit
ting on the end of her berth in heI
corset, with lOOsened lacings, draw
ing on her boots, with lavish dis
play of plumpIy filled hosiery, the
curtains pushed back, and men
and women passing to and from
the toilet room. 1t was needless
exposure. The girl across the aisle,
No. 8, emerged from her closet
curtains with not a crinkle in dra
perry, boots buttOned, and her hair as
smooth as satin to the line where II
broke into hillOws of crimpness over
her forehead. How did she do it
She was in the toilet room with the
first streak of dawn, for | peeped
through my curtains as she passed
by in dressing sack and skirts, the
voluminous drapery on her arms
and the crimping pins held by a
lovely turban. There was differ
ence She could travel to China
and back without danger to hel
modesty."-COr. Albany Argus.

In this room men were shovellng

eat and as if young men were not
alive to pay 81 pound for it.
Another large room, and this
time fifty girls, positively prettler,
if that were possible, than the first
two galaxles. Each girl was arm
ed with a queer little two-pronged
fork, and before each was kettle
of chocolate and a tin plate full OF
creams of various colOrs and shapes
The girls took the creams up
on their little forks, sOused them
in the chocolate stew, twisted them
about in it, fshed them out again,
and placed them on long tin slabs
to dry. There were many more
interesting sights in the candy iac'
tory. In the packing department
more girls, pretty Of course, wrap
ped the bonbons III paper and the
